Bug Description

When I watch a film in full screen mode and move the mouse, the control bar doesn't come up, it just flashes, and when it should disappear it flashez again. During the flash I can see the control buttons for a moment in a frame of 640*480 px. So the control bar and buttons cannot be used in full screen mode.

Right click control functions are broken either. Not even the main sound level changing bubble is shown.

Actually I just realised thet it might have nothing to do with totem, it is a general display problem. When playing a game in fullscreen mode and trying to change sound level the same flash can be seen.

I still have this issue but I experienced that is might be a theme issue. I installed the Moka icon theme and the other theme components either, and since that it worked correctly (until i reinstalled the system). I could see the totem control panel and every notifications on fullscreen mode. Now with the reinstalled system and without the Moka theme the issue is still on.
